PE and FE Review Courses
Prior to the PE and FE
exam dates in April and October of each year, MSPE
offers review courses to help engineers prepare for
these exams. As of the April 2009 exam, MSPE offers
review courses for the Fundamentals of Engineering, the
PE civil exam and the PE mechanical exam. Additional PE
review courses in other disciplines may be offered in
the future depending on availability and interest. All
three courses will be offered live in the Twin Cities
metropolitan area with satellite locations in
surrounding areas connected to the Twin Cities sites
through live Webinar.
All classes will utilize books
published by Professional Publications, Inc. (PPI), the
leader in engineering, architecture, and interior design
exam review and provider of the popular Lindeburg books.
